1.4. Creating Ansible Variables
Ansible roles use variables to help refine the configuration of systems that have specific requirements.
Usually, you can import Ansible variables for the Ansible roles that you are using. If you require further refinement of your system configuration, you can also create Ansible variables in Satellite.
Procedure
- In the Satellite web UI, navigate to Configure > Variables.
- In the upper right of the window, click New Ansible Variable.
- In the Key field, enter a name for the variable. Ensure that the name references the Ansible role name.
- In the Description field, add a description for the variable.
- From the Ansible role list, select the Ansible role to associate with the variable.
- Optional: To override the Ansible variable with Satellite, see the 「Overriding Ansible Variables in Satellite」.
- To save the Ansible variable, click Submit.
